It’s the most wonderful time of the year

with winter sports in full swing

and everyone saying “we’re number one!”

It’s the most wonderful time of the year

It’s the hap-happiest season of all

With maroon cup matches and loud student sections

Where fans come to cheer

It’s the hap-happiest season of all

There’ll be tournaments for hosting

And Diamonds for dancing

And New World caroling for a show

There’ll be dunks by bball boys

And tales of the glories

From winter activities long, long ago

It’s the most wonderful time of the year

There’ll be excited students

And hearts will be glowing

When discoverers win

It’s the most wonderful time of the year

There’ll be swimmers breaking records

And cheers by cheerleaders

Saying “Go Discoverers, Go!”

There’ll be wrestlers getting pins

And tales of the glories

From winter activities long, long ago

It’s the most wonderful time of the year

with winter sports in full swing

and everyone saying “we’re number one”

It’s the most wonderful time

It’s the most wonderful time

It’s the most wonderful time of the year!
